No Alex Newell. Thought he would get a featured nom. I thought OOTI would get more acting nods than it did
Definitely Once on This Island, Anastasia, Miss Saigon and Kinky Boots. Obviously Hamilton if you can get tickets! MIss Saigon is closing so definitely see it.
I've seen it twice (once in each venue) and its amazing. Laughed the entire show. They also now do fan appreciation nights once a month which are readings and those are super fun as well
I've never had an issue asking for playbills from any theater. And now when I see shows I grab a few extra and typically give them out since I always find someone outside or on one of the boards that wants one. Ushers and people at the BO are always fine with giving them away in my experience
I was at the parade working and I will say Once on This Island had the best reaction crowd wise. A lot of people were impressed (as was I) and talking about seeing the show. So mission accomplished there. Excited to see the show in a few weeks!
I love seeing new takes as much as the next person (really excited to see this with taylor) but to say the show wasnt popular because of Ben is laughable.
He's a LARGE LARGE part of the show's success. I doubt DEH would've blown up as much without his performance
CT2NYC said: "It was a magical afternoon. The crowd was great,enthusiastic, but respectful. Lots of loud, extended applause, but not as raucous and uncontrolled as I expected. There was just a beautiful connection between the cast members, as well as between the cast and the audience. It was also a joy to see how the heightened emotions of the day added another layer to the actors' performances. For example, throughout "To Break In a Glove," Michael Park was fighting ba

Yesterday the energy was insane. I imagine today it will be even crazier. Everyone enjoy today’s performance because it will be amazing. Ben was close to tears throughout most of last nights show so I’m sure today will be hard. Yesterday marked my 6th viewing with the full cast in. No words. And I think the final week for Hamilton was just as insane if not a million times worse lol
Daveed didn't either. He came out and said hi to the crowd after his last performance but then the cast did something so he didnt have time to stop. I imagine it will be the same here plus safety concerns. If he does that would be great for anyone that decides to go

I would be surprised if he signs for the last show. He might but don’t know. Has anyone had an experience with people and last shows? I would expect the cast to be doing something right? If you do go get there early and be safe. I imagine the frenzy at the Music Box will be insane. Hence why I went tonight :)
Agreed. I took a chance when I did SH for hamilton and I got to the theater just before the show. Luckily it was legit but normally I tell friends to be at the theater when doors open for that reason. But SH as annoying as it is has the MBG which is why I use them. Not sure if TickPick has the same policy but I would think they do
Yea my friend and I are looking for two more tickets (I have some but hunting for others) unfortunately premium is out of the budget. So we are going to play the resell market
I kinda agree. While I love the IDEA of a final performance not sure I would ever want to attend one. I saw this wednesday and the crowd was electric. Applause was louder and the mood was up. The crowd was crazy which I think was part Ben and part Hillary being there. So I imagine sunday to be that dialed way up. I would probably prefer the last week or last friday/saturday

There’s definitely stubhub chances and maybe last minute tickets that are released day of. I would track stubhub on the app and check this thread. People are great about posting when they see seats
